I don't understand Yao Ming. When he is healthy, he is the best big man in the league. I also don't understand A.I. He is without question one of the best scorers in the history of the NBA. No one has ever said he was a great team player or that he makes people better. They just say he is one of the best scorers ever. Granted, my NBA viewing is only 18 years or so, but there is absolutely no one else I would have taking a game winning shot, besides Jordan of course.

By big do you mean center or PFs and Centers? If so their are quite a few players superior to Ming. I'd say Howard is the superior center.

I'm talking about centers. I would obviously want Howard on my team just because of Yao's injuries, but I think Yao is much better.

Yao better Dwight Howard? I don't see it. More well rounded. Yes. More impactful I'd say no. Yao is has maybe one tenth of DH defensive presence.

This past year Yao destroyed Howard head to head. Just Yao disappears against lesser known players.

Yeah, I never said he is a good team player. He is a horrible team player. Like I said previously, the point I was making is that no one calls Iverson a great team player. They call him one of the best scoreres ever and one of the toughest players to ever play. Both of which are completely true.
